How to set custom image as your Xbox One or Series X background

Setting your own background image with colors or achievement graphics has long been an option on the Xbox One and Xbox Series X. You can, however, also choose your own unique image, which could be anything from a photo from your most recent vacation to a background you found online.

The methods to set any image as the background on your Xbox One and Xbox Series X (and Series S) dashboard are covered in this guide.
